Android to Autopilot
I was hoping to interface an Android device to my Raymarine S3 Autopilot by means of the NMEA4WIFI and a custom app. My hope was to replicate the +1/-1/+10/-10 function of the autopilot controller. After recording some traffic from my Seatalk1 network, I discover that Raymarine (of course) uses a se...

Re: Problem attempting to record from Nmea4wifi tool
Luis and Dagnall, Are you saying that the Windows tool Nmea4WiFi.exe is obsolete? I do not see where the browser window allows you to record incoming streams. In the program, after connecting, I click "Start Recording". The filename to record to is stored in the .ini file, or can be set on the Tools...

Problem attempting to record from Nmea4wifi tool
I am attempting to record a tcp stream from the N4W tool. The tool gets upset with the filename to record to. It errors if you change the filename - file does not exist. If the file does exist, I get an error - file already open... see attachment. I have tried starting with a brand new empty file, I...
Re: TCP Ports
TCP Serial Bridge - free, seems to work fine for TCP, but does not have a UPD option. Still looking.

Re: TCP Ports
Dagnall,
The CommFront port bridge shuts down the ports after 3 hours (free version). Are you aware of a similar product?
Thanks
Mike

Re: TCP Ports
Brilliant. That did it. Part one, creating the port was a bit funky, but after that, CommFront worked great to bridge UDP to the virtual serial port. I will work on TCP next, then bi-directional. I will likely move on from SeaClear. It works, I finally got comfortable with the rather obtuse GUI, but...
Re: TCP Ports
Correction. Looking at the most recent OpenCPN documentation, it appears to allow direct setup of TCP or UDP over Wifi. However, I do not use OpenCPN. SeaClear wants a COM port for input of GPS or AIS.
Re: TCP Ports
Luis, I don't think this is unique to SeaClear. I believe OpenCPN on Windows would require the same sort of setup. These programs can only accept data from a serial COM port; they cannot directly access a TCP or UDP feed. Something must be in place to tie the TCP/UDP broadcast by the NMEA4Wifi to a ...
TCP Ports
Still bench-testing my new NMEA4WiFi unit. I am new to much of TCP and UDP setup. Can anyone offer direction on establishing a TCP or UDP bridge to a virtual serial port? I use SeaClear on Win 10 for navigation and it is looking for one or more COM ports to accept NMEA 0183 from. I have tried TCP-Se...
